Description

Are you a Comms Director?

Would you like the opportunity to review the way you work, meet peers and get advice?

Do you go to Comms Conferences and feel like you never learn anything new?

Do you feel like you give away your knowledge to help less experienced colleagues learn, but there’s nowhere for you to learn with senior-level peers?

If so, this Comms Director Mastermind on 1 July 2019 is for you. It will be led by Comms Consultant Rachel Miller and provide you with the tools and information you need to help you make decisions.

Being a Mastermind means we will be drawing on the work you’ve done to date and building on it. The day will be a blend of Masterminds, discussions and comms theory.

What is a Mastermind?

A Mastermind is an opportunity for you to get help with something you’re stuck on. It’s a group brainstorm which is focused on helping everyone to succeed individually and collectively. Each person shares their thoughts and you hear ideas and opinions from others.

I introduced Masterminds during my How to be a Comms Consultant Masterclasses in 2018 and feedback from delegates shows they provide a valuable opportunity to get help in a confidential environment.

Who is it suitable for?

The Mastermind has been designed for Communication Directors who are looking for a confidential space to learn, ask questions and air their challenges and ideas.

Is this right for me?

Yes if you are the most senior communicator in your organisation

Yes if you would like the opportunity to meet with peers

Yes if you are willing to ask for help and offer your views

Yes if you’d like senior-level advice

Yes if you don’t have a space where you can ask for help

Yes if you would benefit from a confidential environment to discuss your work

No if you’re a Consultant (unless you’re in an Interim Comms Director contract role).

It will be held in WallaceSpace, St Pancras, London.

Not sure if it’s right for you? Do get in touch and we can have a conversation.

It’s is a confidential space, which means I will not be sharing photographs of the group online as I usually do.

What can I expect?

The group size is kept deliberately small, with a maximum of four attendees, to ensure everyone has ample opportunity to get the answers to their problems and time to ask questions.

What will I gain?

You’ll maximise your time by investing a day to solve your problems.

You’ll leave with a personalised action plan.

This is a non-judgemental space, where you’ll find supportive and constructive advice.

Impartial and objective views from peers to help test your thinking.

Mastermind preparation

You don’t need to do a lot of preparation, just share your thinking and what you would like help with. For example you could bring a copy of a Change Comms campaign, Internal Comms strategy or restructuring plan for your team. It goes without saying, you’ll get out what you put in, so come prepared to be honest, non-judgemental and ready to help others in the group when it’s their turn.

Your investment

Places are £599 +VAT per person. There are only four spaces to enable us to have a day completely focused on helping you to succeed.

Timings

Breakfast is available from 8.30am if you fancy it. The course will start at 9am and finish at 4.30pm in St Pancras, London.
